So I’ve just checked into the Omni Hotel in downtown Austin. Everything has gone really smooth thus far. I knew it was going to be a good day when my departing gate at Oakland Airport was literally the closest gate after the security check. And my prognostication was further confirmed when the Starbucks was immediately next to my terminal AND there was no line!

So far, so good.

We don’t officially start the festivities until tonight, so I’m going to try to catch a quick bite before It’s Time!

If you have any suggestions about what to do or see at night in Austin, leave me a comment!
